Anyone have any thoughts on DRF vs Tastypie?

I've been using tastypie for the past few months in a project and I'm kindof regretting it - I'm finding some of the design decisions hard to understand and not super well documented. But I've gotten to the point where I'm using it in production and it feels like it might be too big of a pain to switch at this point.

I'm not an expert, but from what I've read of the docs of both projects I understanding DRF is more modular and easier to customize with its Serializer, Parser, View, Viewset, etc. classes than Tastypie with its monolithic Resource class.

I find DRF far superior. Nice consistent API once you get the hang of views and serializers, and the built-in browser UI is just awesome.
